[Numpy-discussion] determining if you have ATLAS or not

[Bill B. <wb...@gm...>]

How can you probe numpy for info about what sort of BLAS/LAPACK you have, or
other build configuration info?
Searching the ml archives I turned up this one hint from Travis, which can
be embodied in code thusly:

    import numpy
    def have_blas():
         return id(numpy.dot) != id(numpy.core.multiarray.dot)

A) is that function correct?  and B) Is that the most you can find out?
